Flexibility will be a key when it comes to performance management. Enterprise infrastructures are being changed constantly and that will continue to be the case in 2014. From a performance management perspective, enterprises will want to look for solutions that can allow them the flexibility to manage different types of environments, so they do not get locked into a specific hypervisor or application type, but have the flexibility to reuse their existing management system for their new environments without a lot of additional investment.

In 2014, as organizations look to do more with less, IT performance management will be measured by business value. "Organizations are initiating many IT transformation projects to become more nimble, agile and cost-effective.
